Interior lines of component not visible

Hi, I've found some furniture components online. This bed looks okay in the original file, but I saved it into my families folder and then when I placed it on my project the interior lines don't show up but if I pass the mouse over the component I see them. How can I fix this?Screenshot 2023-11-21 173114.pngScreenshot 2023-11-21 173119.pngScreenshot 2023-11-21 173128.png

Post the family that you download here so we can see how it was built.

Open the family to see if the Visibility Graphics of the interior lines are set to fine, medium, and course.

There is a masking region at the perimeter of your bed. In the family file, highlight the bed perimeter.  In the Properties palette, uncheck Draw in Foreground. Reload into your Revit project and you will see the interior lines.

Why don't you use the bed in the OOTB Library (in the Furniture=>Beds Folder)? It's 3D geometry.  

 

...AND it's parametric.

OOTB Bed in Legend on Sheet.  Cool, huh? 😉
